How To Select A Perfect Pressure Washer
Choosing the perfect pressure washer for your use can be a daunting task especially if you are a new buyer. With many
manufacturers and models on offer, it is important to choose a model that best suits your needs and this can only be done if you
understand what it is that you should look for in the machines. This guide will help you understand the essential things you need
to consider as you compare different models in the market.
Check engine brand
The kind of engine used to power the pressure washer should be a major part of your purchase considerations. There are different brand names such as Honda, AR Blue, Karcher, Generac and
Excell among others.
It is advisable to choose a right one whose engine has a brand name instead of one that doesn't have. This will help guarantee
warranty coverage while alleviating problems to do with performance and replacement/repair parts.
Consider the power supply
Ideal washers are powered by either gas or electricity. These normally vary in many things and thus you should understand
them before making the purchase. For example, most gas-powered pressure washers are normally powerful that electric
ones and thus can help do the cleaning job faster and with little effort. Gas-powered models are also durable and do not need
electrical outlet.Unfortunately, gas-powered models are only ideal for outdoor
cleaning because they produce fumes. They are also noisier compared to electrical models. On the other hand, electric
powered are inexpensive, lightweight and ideal for small cleaning jobs such as car wash. They are also suited for indoor cleaning. It
is to choose the model that best suits your cleaning needs and other preferences.
Consider the water supply
Pressure washers are made to use either hot or cold water. Those that use hot water are ideal for exceptionally tough farm or
industrial operations while those utilizing cold water have superb for cleaning power for domestic use.
They are easily portable and economically priced. The perfect pressure washer for heavy duty chores will be the one using hot
water while a cold water supply pressure washer is ideal for average homeowners or those with simple DIY cleaning to be
done.
Check the ratings
You can use two different kinds of ratings to help you in choosing the right one. The first thing you should consider is the Pounds
per Square Inch or PSI which gives you an idea of the force generated by the pressure washers during operation.
For perfect cleaning results, consider an appliance with 2,200 PSI minimally. Additionally, you should consider Gallons per Minute or
GPM which indicates the rate of water flow. A perfect pressure washer should have higher GPM and PSI which indicates better
cleaning power for efficient and faster results.
